     "You could have been dead by now in the maze but instead I guess you decided to slowly die." Corah said. "I actually didn't know I had a decision to make. Do I have a choice right now." I said sarcastically while smiling knowing she would be irritated by me. "Oh you still have hope that I will just leave you here and let you go and tell everyone in the glade. Yea that is not going to happen. Sorry to say but I have to make you suffer its my job right now." "Then why are you just standing there...." Before I can finish she let me go and I ran out of her arms but I guess she saw my ankle so she tripped me and slowly cut my stitches from my ankle back open and she cut open my arm to. I cried out in pain while Corah ran away to leave me to die there.
     What she didn't know is that I never give up. I tried to get back up but each time I did I heard myself scream. I looked down to see my ankle bleeding so much then I looked a bit up to see that my whole arm was bleeding too. I crawled the rest of the way to the glade still feeling the pain in my body. I was still crawling till I saw Tony running towards me. "What the shuck happened Jenny." I ignored him and asked him to go get help so he ran as fast as he could to get help. It was minutes after he finally brought the best he could find for now. I should of told Tony who did this to me before he went to go get help. He brought Corah. "Uh can you please get someone different Tony." I asked trying not to look at him in pain. I know I was losing a lot of blood but no way am I putting my life in this girls hands. "Are you insane Jenny we don't have time you're going to die if you don't let her help." He sounded concerned so I had to do it. Tony was by my side while Corah help me walk to homestead. I guess Tony got the idea that I didn't trust Corah.
     Thank goodness he didn't leave cause I knew if he left she would probably try to kill me again. We finally made it to homestead and I got into a bed while Tony yelled for Kadi. I laughed a bit because I just left this place a while ago. Kadi signaled everyone to leave while she stitched me back up. I was use to this feeling of pain now it hurt but not as much. Kadi left and it was all peaceful till Corah came in through the door and I knew what she was here for. I was so grateful when Tony came running through the same door Corah did. "Am I glad to see you Tony" I said smirking back at Corah. She looked mad and headed back out. Tony sat in a chair next to my bed "So what exactly happened out there" he asked concerned. "Nothing you need to know about right now. Thanks for not leaving my side by the way." I said smiling. He returned the smile and asked "Did Corah do anything to you or are you two just not friends yet?" "Long story short I don't think she likes me and I don't think we are going to become great friends later on." I laid in my bed knowing that Tony was by my side bringing me breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
     He looked so tired and I saw him starting to fall asleep in the chair. He was so small but what can I expect he was a little kid trapped in a hole of a maze. I took off my blanket left my bed and went over to him. I  carried him in my arms and slowly put him down on my bed. Then I covered him with the blankets. He was all cozy and comfortable. I took the chair he was sitting on and slept in it while he slept in my bed.
===========Next Day==========
     I was awake by someone shaking me up. I opened my eyes and was happy to see Tony up and full of energy. I got up still feeling a bit of pain in my ankle but I ignored it. I was walking with Tony (he seemed like my body guard for now) and we ate our breakfast outside watching the Gladers work. My eyes went straight to Corah and Peyton. They seemed to be having so much fun laughing and talking. I didn't get it why does Corah seem so friendly around Peyton but not me. I didn't get it at all but I still needed to keep an eye out for her. Tony and I were hanging out the entire day but each time he ran I wouldn't be able to catch up like old times instead I would be limping and trying to run.    
     Tony would always be by my side for the whole time besides when am going to bed and all. "Glad you and Tony are great friends now I was hoping for that. I will be coming up soon just not from the box am going to be appearing from the maze like Gracey did. Just to let you know you should really trust Gracey and not trust Corah. Hope to see you soon and stay away from Corah." The voice came back and it was a boys voice I noticed. It sounded very familiar but I couldn't quite figure out who it was. I knew that it was real but it was in my head. I was lying against a tree while thinking who was talking to me in my head.
We were now having a gathering for Gracey to see what job she would get. I was sometimes annoyed by her so much. She just wouldn't stop asking questions but the voice told me I had to be friends with her and to trust her. I wasn't really listening to the gathering until Nic said my name "Ok second-in-command Jenny what is your choice in a job for her" Nic said while everyone looked at me. "I say she should become a slicer. Sam needs more help around her and Gracey seems to know how to kill and gut animals" I knew she didn't want it but I had to think of the glade not just one person. "So the decision is final the Keepers have spoken and Gracey gets the job of the slicers. This gathering has ended" Nic said while he left with everyone else. I saw Gracey leave with an upset look on her face. I guess she didn't really like her new job but doesn't matter everyone has to do their part.
     I left walking towards the box while everyone else followed. Today was the day that the new greenie came up. I hope it wasn't another traitor. Nic and I pulled back the metal doors as usual. I jumped down in the box and looked at the greenie I was so happy that it was another girl but she was held a note and I read it to the glade it wrote "She's the last one ever" I gave Nic a confused and concerned look. He shrugged and gave me a looked that showed he wanted to talk later. Seth was always the one to help carry the sleeping people to homestead. I now had to wait till she awoke to get to know her but that also meant that the guys voice in my head was coming soon. I had to get back out in the maze. I ran to Nic and I asked him if I can have one more chance to go out in the maze again. He said no he didn't even hesitate to think he did also say I can ask Seth but that was going to be way worst.
Seth was always careful with his job he didn't want to screw it up. I ran over to him and asked him the same thing I asked Nic but to my surprise he said sure but it wouldn't be his fault if my stitches opened back up "again." Nobody still knew the truth about what happened to me in the deadheads. Tomorrow I was going to see who was talking to me in my head it was probably me but I was going to find out.
=============================
This was a really long chapter but that means more for you guys to read. I know am still working on my writing but am happy the way it is once again.
